"The team used a 3M solution of LiPF6 electrolyte dissolved in a 1,3-dioxane and dimethoxyethane solution mixed with a volumetric ratio of 1:3. The unique chemical formulation helps form a solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) that holds together silicon particles, even when they are fractured during charge-discharge cycles. This aids in maintaining the ionic conduction and keeping unnecessary reactions to a minimum."
Through private sector innovation and smart federal policies, we can look to end China's monopoly on rare earth elements.
"So what exactly do you get for $60,000? In short, a surprisingly sleek looking five-seat crossover with an expected range of more than 300 miles. If that range seems a bit low compared to the 360 miles of a Model X, it should be noted that GM is usually conservative on these estimates and the Bolt can easily outperform its 259-mile rating. Conversely, Tesla’s tend to fall short of their official ratings."
"These goals cannot possibly be met without major sacrifices for Americans. Some might argue that sacrifices should be made to help the climate. However, this NDC still would make no noticeable impact on global GHG emissions because the real problem comes from countries such as China, Russia and India."
"The good news is a broad bipartisan consensus exists in Congress to make significant investments in infrastructure. The problem is not money. The problem is regulation and focus (calling something infrastructure doesn’t make it infrastructure)."
"Tyson Foods announced this morning that it will strive to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its global operations and supply chain by 2050."
"The Obama Administration often used this 'sue and settle' strategy to bypass Congress."
"In March, Porsche set itself an ambitious goal to be carbon neutral across its entire value chain by 2030 — well ahead of automakers such as Ford (2050), GM (2040) and Jaguar Land Rover (2039). The sports car giant says that production within its German factories, located in Zuffenhausen and Leipzig, is already carbon neutral through the use of renewable energy and biogas."
"The package calls for implementing a clean electricity standard requiring utilities to generate 80% clean electricity by 2030, multiple senators said Wednesday."
"Active forest management policies enable forests to become more resilient and allow for low-intensity, regular fire cycles. Lawmakers would be well-served to incorporate this, among other policy prescriptions, in their rulemaking decisions."
